Why is my Derbi Rambla 250 Scooter consuming so much oil and producing exhaust smoke?
- JJim DavenportJul 31, 2025
Excessive oil consumption and exhaust smoke in your Derbi Scooter can stem from several issues. It could be due to incorrect valve adjustment, in which case you should adjust the valve clearance. Other potential causes include overheated valves (remove/grind/replace the valves), a deformed or worn valve seat (replace the head unit), worn cylinder or piston rings (replace the cylinder piston unit or the piston rings), oil leakage from couplings or gaskets (check/replace gaskets or restore coupling sealing), a worn valve oil seal (replace the valve oil seal), or worn valve guides (check/replace the head unit if needed).
